I live in Cornwall, which is about as far from Scotland as you can go without getting wet, and I LOVE Irn-Bru.
Personally I think it goes better with scotch than with vodka.

irn bru....made from girders.

Yup. The only soft drink I don't drink light (diet). I've even found a shop here in Utrecht (center of Holland) that sells it. And they sell Golden Wonder salt 'n' vinegar crisps (and prawn cocktail crisps).

Let the party begin!

The only food source I really miss from Scotland/England now is good old fish 'n' chips. God, I'd kill for a fish supper.

Isn't Irn Bru one of the reasons Scots have a lower life expectancy than English people? πŸ˜‰

nooooo-your both wrong. it's the haggis hunting. althogh two of their legs are shorter than the other two (so they sit properly on the hills), they can jump. and they know where to jump! haggis hunting is a deadly activity. that's why we only eat it once a year.

and if you survive the deadly highland haggis (and event he lowlang haggis-they have 4 legs of the same length, but tend to fall over. no idea why πŸ˜•) on a hunting expedition, generally you end up dying of the cold instead as kilts do not keep out the schootish weather.

generally, a true huntsman impales himself on his bagpipes after devouring the haggis. it's a matter of honour.

thus, the low life expectancy.

Observations of many decades drinking Irn-bru:

1. It tastes better out of a glass bottle.
2. When you take back all the empties to the newsagent for a refund, walking along the street with 5 Safeway bags full of bottles clinking away, all the neds call you a 'bottle merchant'.
3. Which is a bit cheeky considering they're smoking Kenny Club.
4. It tastes better in Glasgow than in Edinburgh.
5. The perfect hangover cure is a bottle of Irn-bru, and a roll with a slab of Lorne sausage in it, drowned in tomato ketchup. Though I might move over to 'scooby snacks', they sound great!
6. Come to think of it, Lorne sausage could well be the cause of premature death in Scots. I mean what's in it? Really?
